Can I use this solar panel for the Goal Zero 22004 Yeti 150 Solar Generator?

I think you'll need an adapter for that to work > http://www.goalzero.com/p/27/4-7mm-input-to-8-0mm-output. The boulder panel has a 4.7mm plug and the Yeti has an 8mm port.

yes you can trickle charge it from solar panels from the same outfit. You can also plug it into your house current so it is ready to take on your outings you get it for to begin with. The real problem or drawback is the really short warranty. I had used my goal zero twice before finding that once it is not plugged into a charger, it would lose a bar of charge over night. Rather disappointed in the short warranty making this something they would not replace the unit for. Love the product over all, but very unhappy with the short warranty and battery quality. deep cycle should not be this way.

Yes. I have the Goal Zero Nomad 7 Solar Panel, which puts out 7 watts of power and I charge these batteries with it via the 12v attachment and it works great!

Hello Barbara, sorry for the slow answer. You can connect these panels in parallel to double the output but you probably will not see a full 120 watts. Keep in mind that there are many things that determine output of these panels such as the angle of the sun and the ambient air temperature at the time of use. Also, you will need to wire the panels through a good quality regulator/charger and with good quality deep cycle batteries to have consistent power output as the output voltage and current of the panels constantly change as the sun moves across the sky and as clouds move over and around the sky.

Here is a guy who found one and made his own adapter: http://irongarment.wordpress.com/2013/01/16/goal-zero-nomad-27-solar-panel-to-energizer-x/

not sure. never tried it. if the amperage and volt match from your solar charger, I don't see why not

Unfortunately I haven't installed my solar panel yet. So I cannot answer this question.

The output from this panel is a maximum of about 30 volts. I have used them with either 12 volt and 24 volt inverters. I don't know what the inverter in the Goal Zero Yeti 1250 is, but that should give some idea.

The Sunforce panel isn't listed on the Goal Zero site as being compatible with the Yeti 400 or Escape 150. Apparently the problem isn't in the output of the Sunforce panel (I'm not sure about that) but in the Sunforce connector. The Yeti site states it needs an 'input able to plug into an 8mm input or have an adapter.' Goal Zero web site has answered the questions of others re. adaptability of their solar panels and the availability of adapters. My not very direct, but probably safest suggestion for you is to contact Goal Force with exactly the query you made here.

Unfortunately no. The current draw of power tools would be too much for the Yeti 150 to handle. Your best bet would be to take an old car battery and purchase a 3kw+ inverter.

Sure, but you will want to make sure that you have the solar panel hooked up through a contoller/regulator to avoid overcharging the battery. This is true with any battery.

This light fits all Sherpa power packs n yeti generators. It's a 12V light n it comes with a 12V car adaptor to plug into ya car 12V lighter outlet or the yeti 12V lighter outlet. I bought this together with escape 150 which is an older model of the current yeti 150. So if you're not using a goal zero power pack, the only option is to use the 12V car adapter that comes with the light. Does ya power pack support 12V? If it does, then it'll work for you.

none of the nomad solar panels produce enough wattage to run one of these alone, you would need one of their power packs (sherpa 100 or yeti 150 minimum) to power this, but not for longer than a day or 2 probably without some solar panels(30w to slow the drain on the battery, 60w to actually charge the battery and run the fridge) to charge it during the daytime. specs say this fridge averages 35 watts

Solar panels are not included with this model. Hand crank charger is built in. I understand that Goal Zero offers standalone solar panels, but I did not purchase any.

The panel charges the battery unit, such as a Yeti 150 or Escape 150 or other...... then you can user the battery to charge the device

Hey Edwars O. Not sure. What type/sort of system are you putting together? 6V 12V? What are you needing to run, and for how long? What are your energy needs? I can't answer your question my friend without more info. I personally use the 400 watt system with another 100 watt panel. I match my batt bank so every 100 watt of solar for 100Ah of storage. Yes, it is over kill for just myself! I'm still in the learning processes if you will. The panels that come with this kit have zero issues with charging the batteries on cloudy days. I'm very happy with this basic system so far!!

It could be done, but 50 watts probably wouldn't do the trick. You could tie together more than one panel, though, for more power, or use a larger panel. If you do buy solar and plan to use a lead-acid battery, spend a little more and buy a PWM controller. (Look at Sunguard controllers). It costs a little more, but you'll get more output from the same panel. Controllers are used to prevent overcharging lead acid batteries. So, in short, it can be done. I love the Instapark panels. I dropped one from my RV and replaced it with the same model. Still need to see if I can have the glass replaced. They are not fragile, though. Have fun. It's a project.
